This question was asked about the related product: Bosch - 100 Series Premium 24" Top Control Smart Built-In Hybrid Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, 46 dBA - Black

• A:Answer Hi MV! Thanks for your questions about the Bosch dishwasher model SHX5AEM6N. This dishwasher uses a condensation drying process called PureDry™ and does not have a separate dry cycle. PureDry™ is an energy-efficient, closed drying system that does not pull in outside air or use an exposed heating element. During the final rinse, an extra hot wash heats the dishes, and the coolness of the stainless steel interior helps pull moisture away from the dishes onto the tub walls, where remaining water droplets are drained away. This model does not have interior lighting, but it features fold-down tines in the lower rack and a 3rd rack for added loading capacity. The InfoLight® projects a red solid light onto the floor to indicate a cycle is running. We hope this information is helpful and thank you for considering Bosch!
